Scientists Create First Draft of Human 'Cell Atlas'

Amazing new images as 37-trillion-cell 'human atlas' nears first draft
Eight years on from the formation of the Human Cell Atlas (HCA) consortium, which set out with the hugely ambitious task of mapping the entire human body – around 37.2 trillion cells – scientists reveal that it's nearly at its first draft stage.
Scientists Create First Draft of Human 'Cell Atlas' for Disease Research
New advances allow scientists to study DNA, RNA, and gene activity in individual cells rather than in bulk tissue samples.
Scientists map out the human body one cell at a time
Scientists focused on certain organs — plotting the jobs of cells in the mouth, stomach and intestines, as well as cells that guide how bones and joints develop. They also explored which cells group into tissues, where they're located in the body and how they change over time.
